Bromeliad Guzmania Plant Exchange 6 Inch Pot
Light
Thrives in bright indirect light. Be sure not to place in direct sunlight or
the leaves can burn.
Water & Humidity
Bromeliads are more drought-tolerant houseplants and dislike being over-
watered. You can keep them healthy by watering the soil every one to two weeks
in the warmer months, and every two to three weeks in the colder months.
Because these are tropical plants, they benefit from moderate-to-high humidity.
A light mist daily will keep your guzmania looking its best.
Temperature
Ideal temperature is 70-80°F and should not be lower than 60°F for extended
periods.
Food
Use a weak liquid fertilizer during the growing season. Mix the fertilizer at
1/4 the label strength and apply with a spray bottle.
Toxicity
Non-toxic to humans and pets.
Growers Tips
Mature bromeliads should not be repotted. Smaller bromeliads can be potted
into small containers until they are established then moved into 4-inch or
6-inch pots until they flower. Be aware that a mature guzmania is a fairly top-
heavy plant and will tip over in a standard plastic pot. Make sure the pot is
well-weighted.
